I knew 801 Chophouse was going to serve up a high-end, remarkably good dinner. I was right. Read the latest in my Steak Town USA series right now at the @flatwaterfreep:

801 Chophouse, the Midwestern high-end steakhouse chain, is undeniably costly. It's also undeniably delightful, says FFP food critic Sarah Baker Hansen.

I'm back this week for @flatwaterfreep with the latest in my year-long Steak Town USA series. We've officially left Omaha for the Speakeasy, a steakhouse in a Nebraska ghost town serving delicious beef against the odds:

I did an interview with @BusinessInsider about all the AI recipes appearing on my timeline. Their reporter tried to make one — with mixed results. https://t.co/LhCeoZNJqe

Recipes written by AI are all over Facebook. Some people are making the food — with mixed results. I made one of the dishes. Here's what I thought.

I've done a lot of stories with @danteomaha over the years (small farms, foraging morel mushrooms, attended an actual duck hunt!) but somehow, as they turn 15, this is the first time that I've reviewed Dante. Come and take a walk with me down memory lane:

The West Omaha restaurant has slid comfortably into middle age, while retaining the reason that diners, including Sarah Baker Hansen, loved it from Day One.

“Steak Town USA,” my new year-long series of steakhouse stories, maps and ratings in the Flatwater Free Press, starts with a look at Jerico’s, a too-often-overlooked Omaha steakhouse – and a place that feels like home to me. Read it here:

Saddle Creek Breakfast Club has the “secret sauce” making it one of Omaha’s favorite brunch spots. But can it keep that flavor moving from its eclectic Dundee location to Countryside Village? Read my latest for @flatwaterfreep : https://t.co/XkgS0nTTGm

This is very cool of @francieandfinch, one of my fave bookstores. Lincoln: Stop by and see me Sunday afternoon. If you buy one of the books I've picked by my fave Nebraska authors (including @carsonvaughan and @TedGenoways)...10% of proceeds go to fund @flatwaterfreep journalism!
This Sunday, FFP editor Matthew Hansen will be at @francieandfinch Bookshop to talk all things journalism. If you're in town, cruise by to say hello and grab a copy of FFP's annual Commemorative Edition. We hope to see you there!

It's no secret that food costs more now. A burger that used to run $10 is now $15. An $8 craft cocktail has jumped to $14. What happened, exactly? And how is it affecting locally owned Omaha restaurants? My @flatwaterfreep this week takes a closer look: https://t.co/JrRfKhhLNZ

Something may have gotten a little lost in translation at this Paris cafe, but I mean, what an amazing consequence of butchering French!

I have been waiting a decade for soup dumplings to come to Omaha. Thanks to Dumpling Empire, they’re here. Hand cut noodles in chili oil, huge baoo buns and hand-pulled noodles are nothing to sneeze at, either. Read the newest Just Add Salt: https://t.co/3kVdsjLdXO

Clio is hot and new. Clio is perhaps the most challenging reservation in the city, period. But can it age into a good restaurant? Time will tell if this Mediterranean spot will find long-term success in Omaha's Old Market. Read the latest Just Add Salt:
